Title: A reproducing kernel enhanced approach for peridynamic solutions

Journal Article · · Computer Methods in Applied Mechanics and Engineering

The most common discretization method for peridynamic models used in engineering problems is the node-based meshfree approach. This method discretizes peridynamic domains by a set of nodes, each associated with a nodal cell with a characteristic volume, leading to a particle-based description of continuum systems. The behavior of each particle is then considered representative of its cell. This limits the convergence rate to the first order. In this paper, we introduce a reproducing kernel (RK) approximation to the field variables in the peridynamic equations to increase the order of convergence of peridynamic numerical solutions. Furthermore, the numerical results demonstrate improved convergence rates in static peridynamic problems using the proposed method.
